About the resources, I've been in and out of town but wanted to add the other valuable book (unless someone has already mentioned it) that is William Graver's Hamilton County, Ohio, Guide to Recorder's Indexes and Documents, 1794-1988. He lists all the records available to researcher's in this department (you would be surprised), the indexes and years available along with samples of how the index will look, and examples of what each index will lead you to. The Recorder's office should have a copy for you to look at when you arrive or let me know if you would like one before heading for Cincinnati.

Hi Barbara, Please let me know how much a copy of this book would cost, as well as shipping charges to Indianapolis, IN. It sounds like a wonderful reference book that I could really use as all my ancestors were from Hamilton County, OH. Thanks for mentioning it to someone else.

I'll try to answer everything in this message. I am the publications director for the Hamilton Co. Chap. OGS, I research my own family in Hamilton County, but also publish books (an outgrowth of my own research). I don't want to jeopardize my standing on this list by advertising, but do like to let you know when something comes up that will help with your research, so if the webmaster for this site will allow this to go through, I'll give my Web site address www.littlemiamibooks.com so you can find this book under Hamilton County books in the drop down menu. There are more than 20 different types of records that Bill Graver lists here (power of attorney documents, veterans' discharge documents, cemetery lot doc. & maps, doc. in miscellaneous books, to will excerpts, welfare : aid-for-the-aged lien doc., deeds, leases, registered land, mortgages, mechanic liens, releases, organization papers of churches, clubs, businesses, etc., partnership doc. and names, unemployment compensation liens, liens from gov. agencies, financing statements, maps, sundries (by-name) indexes, and other resources such as directories, census, surveys, maps, auditor, and recorders). He also provides a map of the floor and location as to where you can find these indexes, he discusses street and number changes--when and where they occurred, info about maps, etc. Some of these are also in the Cincinnati Historical Society library and Blegen Library at Univ. of Cinci.-- an appendix will direct you to those. The cost is $29.50 and even local attorneys have found this guide useful. I'm not sure about staff lookups, but I know some local researchers who could do the work for you for a reasonable price if you like, or there may be someone on this list who could provide that service. This is truly an untapped source by many people.
